Can't get addresses to load in mempool
blockstream/electrs. If you have stronger hardware, consider running Blockstream's electrs implementation. It's the backend mempool.space uses, and is also what powers blockstream.info.

How to connect to Electrum Server
I am excited after latest update about ability to connect Trezor to Electrum Server. I've installed https://github.com/blockstream/electrs connected it to my Bitcoin Core using advice form https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/91746/configure-esplora-to-point-to-the-bitcoind-servers-ip-address and then run https://github.com/blockstream/esplora on top of it, just for fun (well to have a block explorer).

how can i link my electrum to bitcoind if they are on the same computer?
Follow the instructions on Electrum Personal Server. Don't let the word "server" deter you. Often this can mean "open a localhost http port". Assuming you have enough privledge on your PC to bind a TCP/IP port, you should be fine.

Is there any way to not dox al your addresses without running your own node?
There are some server implementations that make use of XPUBs. For instance, Electrum Private Server is an implementation that must be configured with XPUBs of all wallets you want to use with it, so it can scan the blockchain for them, in return for much lower resource usage than regular servers that have to index the necessary information of every transaction ever made. But EPS is only suitable for private use, hence the name.

New to crypto
(A) Link it to your own Bitcoin Core node. You will need a little indexer called Electrum Private Server. https://github.com/chris-belcher/electrum-personal-server/releases . Once you do that, you won't have to ask any other Bitcoin node for transaction history or to broadcast your transactions. You become your own bank, literally.

You need Electrum PERSONAL Server, not Electrum Server. Big difference!
